Next 4th Districtwide Community Meeting - February 26th @ the Senator !

.

For three years now, I have brought together the leaders and active members of the 4th District’s neighborhoods for my districtwide community meetings. My hope is always that these meetings serve not only to keep the lines of communication open between the communities and City government, but also as opportunities for neighborhood leaders talk amongst themselves, sharing information and experience in ways that will make each association stronger.

As such, I am pleased to invite you to my next quarterly 4th District Community Meeting.  This meeting will focus on two areas: the City's 311 system and how it works with CitiStat, as well as the new Neighborhood Nuisances law, recently passed by the City Council.  Please come and take advantage of this opportunity to discuss with representatives of the CitiStat office and Baltimore Housing any of your concerns in these areas.

Also at this meeting, I will be introducing the members of the 4th District Community Advisory Commission.  Appointed last year, commissioners review and discuss issues affecting their neighborhoods – including but not limited to economic development, recreation, public safety, traffic & parking, sanitation, streetscape, and zoning – and provide related policy suggestions or reactions to me on behalf of you, their neighbors.  Amongst their other responsibilities, the commissioners will also review and discuss the City’s annual budget and tax proposals, interview potential replacement candidates in the event of a vacancy, and advise me on the setting and topics for these districtwide community meetings.

One of their suggestions was to try a schedule change and set the next meeting for a Saturday morning, rather than the weekday evenings on which I had been hosting these events.  So, our next meeting will be:

Saturday, February 26th
10am to 11:30am
The Senator Theatre
5904 York Road

Please call Leslie Wietscher at 410-396-4830 or email her at Leslie.Wietscher@BaltimoreCity.gov to confirm your attendance. Thank you for your continued commitment to your community and the city of Baltimore and I look forward to seeing you on the 26th!
